Colossus: The Forbin Project

Forbin was the creator of an extremely sophisticated computer which will manage all America’s nuclear defenses. It detects Guardian immediately after it is turned on. This Soviet counterpart was previously not known to US Planners. After establishing a link, both computers agree to it. Once the connection is made, the computers become one new Supercomputer and can launch nuclear weapons immediately if separated. Colossus starts to outline its plans for managing the world. Forbin, along with the other scientists, form an underground resistance against Colossus. –John Vogel
